1) I'm taking a class at work2) I'm taking a class at USC3) Went to Vegas for a bachelor party4) Went to Cambria for a cousin's graduation from Cal Poly5) Went to Vegas again for another bachelor party6) Went to the Kern River for camping/rafting

Basically I'm in the midst of another Best Summer Ever (sorry TSP). And, unfortunately, the BSE does not include blogging, at least in the near future. Because on Friday morning I leave for Europe for 2 weeks. Specifically London, then to Italy (Florence for a couple days and then a week in a villa outside of Montepulciano). It's a murderer's row of family: my sister, mom, a first cousin and husband, two aunts, one uncle, and two of my mom's cousins plus one wife and kid. 12 in all. Staying in one villa. For a week. Should be super duper fun but at the same time totally infuriating. At least we get gelato.

But that's not all. Because once I get back there's this huge review at work that I have to prepare a bunch of charts for. Then after that I start a volleyball class. And continue basketball. And two weddings that bookend August. Maybe there will be some relief in September but don't count on it.

About Me

I'm Brad and I write NachoLoversAnonymous as a hobby and creative outlet. I am an engineer in the defense industry and have far ranging interests from nachos (duh) to urban issues of geography and economics. I also like maps. A lot. Having already done a stint at graduate school, I am looking at going back. As I learn about prospective subjects and participate in different activities relating to our built world of Los Angeles I will post about them here, hopefully bringing logical arguments and keen insights. In the process my writing should improve and this 'about me' and the blog will become more focused. You can reach me at btbrauer (at) gmail (dot) com.
